Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will take steps to encourage orthodontists to offer NHS appointments to children outside school hours.

NHS England contracts for orthodontic services at a local level taking account of the local oral health needs. Therefore opening hours are a matter for agreement between local commissioners and providers.
